Music Licensing

For music supervisors in a rush, simply submit your proposed master and synchronization license terms by using the Real Wave contact form (important: subject line must only say: Licensing Proposal), and there will consequently be a prompt reply to fair proposals.

Audio Description

Real Wave audio sculptures are ideal for visual accompaniment in projects of all sizes, and can really make your scene stand out in a powerful and transformative way for your audience.

Understanding that music supervisors are generally very busy, Real Wave licensing is optimized for smoothness and quickness without sacrificing quality.

Real Wave audio sculptures are generally trippy in a modern way (i.e. not 1960s throwback style and even modern by current standards), and have a carefully applied combination of varying degrees of timbre specialization and spatial effects that are great for taking audiences outside of their mundane perception (e.g. a scene where the lead character is dealing with the unknown).

There is no search tool for style, mood, and so on, because Real Wave frankly does not have the extra resources necessary to build the corresponding database for now. Only a handful of Real Wave audio sculptures are published yearly, so it remains fairly easy to stay tuned with those releases (and sufficiently increased demand by music supervisors will prompt a change towards adding that tool).

To help you reduce exploration time, Real Wave audio sculptures are usually allocated to one of the six entertainment ecosystems (entecos) with each basically dedicated to a certain style and mood:

Licensing Proposal

To ensure your proposal is (at least promptly) read, the contact message subject line must only say: Licensing Proposal

Only fair licensing proposals are acknowledged, so avoid proposing an extremely small (e.g. $1) or no license fee. A lot of hard work goes into Real Wave audio sculptures, so licensing terms must reflect that fact.

Real Wave understands that projects vary greatly, and so too does the usage (so value) of the license.

Propose a fair fee in tune with your project budget and the value of the Real Wave audio sculpture(s) within that project.

Real Wave audio sculptures are registered with BMI, so do not send a licensing proposal, if you wish to negate performing rights.

Creative Commons

Real Wave relies upon CC+ for commercial licensing. Obviously follow the instructions above, if you are interested in licensing any of our work for any commercial purpose.

All Sines is an enteco ultimately containing all of the Real Wave audio sculptures, so for any non-commercial purpose, check out the Creative Commons license in the All Sines footer.
